Police: Man assaults ex, kills new boyfriend, self

Two men are dead and a woman is in a hospital after an Oklahoma City domestic home invasion and police pursuit, investigators said.

Officers received a call from the Norman Police Department at 3:07 a.m. Friday about a home invasion and shooting on the 1500 block of NW 39th St. When police arrived, they said, they saw a man and a woman in a car in front of the home, and the man was holding a gun to his head.

At 3:26 a.m., police persuaded the 36-year-old man to let the 32-year-old woman, who investigators said previously dated the suspect, out of the car. The man then drove away, and police gave chase.

After seven minutes, the man was on Interstate 35 nearing Interstate 40 when, police said, he shot himself and later died at a hospital. When police searched the Northwest 39th Street home, they found a 25-year-old man with a gunshot wound.

Investigators believe he is the 32-year-old woman's boyfriend. He died of his injuries. Four children, ages 9, 5, 2 and 1, were also inside the home.

Their mother, the woman being held hostage in the car when police first arrived, was taken to a hospital. Police said she was assaulted both inside and outside the home.

Officers have been to the home several times before for domestic issues, and the woman may have a protective order in place. Police are not releasing the names of any of the people involved at this time.

The deathof the man found in the home is the 98th homicide in Oklahoma City this year.
